![]() ![]() ![]() The idea of real murders being committed around a haunted house experience is brilliant - the perfect cover for those who are looking for victims. There are tons of pop culture references from the old classic monsters Freddy and Jason through to the more modern films such as Suspiria and special mentions to the films of the Italian director Dario Argento. The book faithfully recreates that 80's b-movie horror vibe (although it is set in the modern day) complete with people acting irresponsibily at times of danger and plenty of tongue-in-cheek moments. Along with her friend Emery, Katie seems quite dedicated to making sure the house re-opens. It isn't long before a strange, attractive girl, Katie, turns up and offers to help him with the repairs. Mike Kostner, a struggling divorcee living paycheck to paycheck, reluctantly takes on the task of getting the run-down house into a safe and sound building that still looks cosmetically like it's falling apart. What better location for a haunted house attraction? Rumor has it that the ghost of a witch haunts the place. The House by the Cemetery is an old, derelict building known locally as "Bachelor’s Grove" and is situated within the grounds of an ancient, crumbling cemetery. While "escape rooms" seem to the most prevelant, there is also a niche for those who would prefer to be scared rather than think about puzzles. There seems to be a rise in a new form of entertainment these last few years, that of the live action experience. ![]()
